Hello all,

Displayed at this show myself a couple of times, never much truck related stuff apart from the few of us that did it, good for picking up the odd bargain and general model supplies.

Be sure to look under the tables of the displays, as thats where the bargains will be, not from the mainstream dealers

Hello Simon,

Won't be there this year as I am working part time for the next 3 months and have to work  Fri-Sat-Sun,
my choice, its something I have to do, so no model shows at all for at least till May, but probably no display until 2012, hopefully Gaydon will be the only exception

I was there, didn't take any pics though, spent most of the time chatting to folks. How about considering having a table there next year ... book early!

So much for the roving reporter :grin: Any chance of a bit of a report as to whether it's worth going next year? :tongue:

I got up with every intention of going across, then got a call to tell me one of my trucks had a flat so spent the morning changing bloody tyres so it had no delay monday morning.
But then I could have called the tyre co out and still gone to model show, but with call out charges being what they are, the tight git inside ventured to the fore and I done the job myself.

i wish there had been more hauliers like you when i was a tyre fitter tony i was always getting called at silly o'clock and weekends mind you it was a good job but the wages were shocking.
